The scandal at Firmaments spread like lightning across the twelve southwestern regions in the last few days. It became the topic of gossip.
As for the "Meng Family" of the Season Region, they were the envy of all the clans in the Season Region, but after a single night, they became the target of pity.
That night, the Meng Clan was attacked by a group of mysterious cultivators. Almost all of the clan's experts were killed and blood dyed the region city red. The next morning, the streets and alleys were filled with the corpses of the Meng Clan's disciples. The corpses stretched all the way out of the region city. It took the guards until noon of the third day to collect the corpses.
The branches of the Meng family in the Season Region were also attacked, and they suffered heavy casualties. Only some members with low cultivation managed to escape.
The scandal caused a huge uproar in Season. Many people were gloating over the misfortune of the Meng. The sect masters took advantage of the situation and sent out orders to divide the Meng's mines, lands, alchemy fields, and weapon refinement facilities.
A great battle for benefits was taking place in Season Domain, and all the forces were getting involved.
No one knew the real reason for the Meng's defeat. They only knew that the Meng's women were unfaithful, causing Firmaments City to lose face. A big shot from the city wanted the Meng to disappear from this land.
An 80,000 year old clan fell from the top of Season in just ten days just because of one sentence from a big shot from Firmaments City.
Meanwhile, Feng Feiyun took Meng Lingyan back to Season and handed her over to Meng Taiyue. As for how Meng Taiyue would comfort her, that would depend on him.
Inside the Half-Demon League.
Feng Feiyun saw Elder Mu again and smiled: "Elder Mu, all the powers in Season went to divide the Meng's territories and resources. Don't tell me the Half-Demon League didn't get anything."
Elder Mu was in a good mood. He sat on a boulder and stroked his beard: "Ye Xiaomu brought your message back to the Half-Demon League and I told the Domain Lord. The Domain Lord then contacted the Half-Demon League from several nearby regions to consolidate their forces. They have people stationed in important areas of the Meng's territories.
The harvest this time is indeed amazing, we even took back our seventh-ranked spirit treasure. "
Elder Mu took out a fourth-ranked half-demon badge and handed it over to Feng Feiyun.
Feng Feiyun's contributions to the Half-Demon League were enough for him to become a fifth-ranked half-demon. However, Feng Feiyun had only joined the Half-Demon League for a short period of time. Becoming a fourth-ranked half-demon in just a month was unheard of in the Half-Demon League.
"The Domain Lord wants to see you." Elder Mu said solemnly.
Feng Feiyun put away the badge. It wasn't worth much but as long as the Half-Demon League was around, it would be useful.
After all, there were far more half-demons than any Immortal Mansion or Ancient Clan in the world.
In terms of numbers, the Half-Demon League was definitely the largest in the world.
"Because of my bloodline?" Feng Feiyun asked.
Elder Mu nodded.
Elder Mu brought Feng Feiyun to another grotto-heaven in the Half-Demon League's territory. There, he saw the Half-Demon League's Domain Lord.
This was a very amiable old man. He couldn't hide his joy after seeing Feng Feiyun and praised Feng Feiyun's contributions to the Half-Demon League.
"The secret scroll you wrote to conceal your demonic energy has been sent to the Half-Demon League's headquarters. The higher-ups are paying great attention to this matter."
The Domain Lord took out a boundary stone and handed it to Feng Feiyun: "There are 500,000 spirit stones inside. Consider it a reward from the Half-Demon League."
500,000 spirit stones was a huge fortune for the Half-Demon League's half-demons, but it wasn't much to Feng Feiyun.
Feng Feiyun didn't accept the stones. He smiled: "Just say what you want, Domain Lord.
As for spirit stones, I have a lot on me. Give them to the other cultivators of the Half-Demon League. "
The Domain Lord didn't beat around the bush and took out a jade box. There was a demonic bead inside with a drop of blood on it. The blood was a strange rainbow.
This was Feng Feiyun's blood.
"This old man really wants to know, which demon race cultivator your mother is from?"
The Realm Lord's expression became serious as he stared at Feiyun's eyes. He clearly attached great importance to this matter.
Feng Feiyun sat in front of the Domain Lord and shook his head: "Even the Half-Demon League can't detect the demonic energy inside?"
The Domain Lord sighed: "I brought this drop of blood to the main camp of the Half-Demon League of Ye Hong Sect. Even a high grade demonic bead couldn't detect the demonic blood inside. However, a senior from the Half-Demon League found that this drop of blood not only contained demonic blood but also demonic blood."
Feng Feiyun frowned and pondered.
The Domain Lord smiled: "You don't need to worry too much. It's not a big deal even if it can't be detected. If there's a chance in the future, you can go to the main Half-Demon League to have it tested.
Now, I have something more important to tell you. This is definitely a good thing for you and also a huge challenge. Our Season Half-Demon League only has five spots. "
"What kind of challenge?" Feng Feiyun asked.
"Have you heard of the Myriad-race Battlefield?" The Domain Lord asked.
How could Feng Feiyun not have heard of it? He asked: "Half-demons are qualified to enter too?"
"In the past, they indeed didn't have the qualifications to enter the battlefield. However, the Union managed to obtain a small number of spots for the half-demons through hard work.
The top prodigies among them can enter the battlefield to train. "The Domain Lord said.
The battlefield wasn't a sacred ground for cultivation. On the contrary, it was full of slaughter and competition. In some ancient planes, the mortality rate was as high as 70%.
Of course, danger and opportunity coexisted. Anyone who could return from the battlefield would be considered a hero. The longer they served, the more honor they would receive when they returned to the Central Dynasty.
Anyone who wanted to gain the recognition of others in the Sixth Central Dynasty would have to go to the battlefield to accumulate military merits. Only military merits on the battlefield could prove one's worth.
Monstrous powers like the Golden Sacred Palace and Firmaments would send their top prodigies to the battlefield each year. Only those who could come back alive would be recognized by their seniors.
The more merits one accumulated, the more respect they would receive.
For example, the Six Heaven's Prides of the 12 Southwest Territories would go to the 10,000 Race Battlefield for a month almost every year. The reason they were called the Six Heaven's Prides was because their accumulated military merits were among the top six of the younger generation, far surpassing other young geniuses.
The Ten Thousand Race Battlefield was usually set in some ancient 'Greater Thousand Planes' or 'Lesser Thousand Worlds'. These were all big battlefields. There were also some small battlefields in high level Secret Realms. Not only the human races, but the Demon Race, the foreign races, the ghost race … As long as it was a race on this continent, they would come to the Ten Thousand Race Battlefield to fight for their own territory.
After reaching first-level Nirvana, Feng Feiyun wanted to go to the battlefield. However, he gave up on this idea after thinking about how he couldn't enter as a half-demon.
Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, how could he not go?
"My spot is already decided, right?" Feng Feiyun asked.
The Realm Lord shook his head: "You will definitely be one of the five spots in Season, but you might not be able to pass the Ye Hong Sect's examination.
There are very few half-demons in each realm. Only five hundred can enter the battlefield. "
Only five hundred half-demons in each realm were qualified to enter the battlefield.
Ye Hong Sect had a total of 8,654 domains. Each domain would pick five of their most talented half-demons and send them to Ye Hong Sect's Half-Demon League. This meant that the total number of half-demons would be 43,270.
Only five hundred half-demons would be qualified to enter the Myriad Races Battlefield to fight against the foreign races and the demon races. They would fight for the human territories and the honor of the half-demons. They would let others see their contributions to the human race, which would earn them more respect and status.
The five spots for Season were quickly decided. The ninth-level Heaven's Mandate representatives were Ye Xiaomu and Li Lang.
First-level Nirvana, Feng Feiyun.
Second-level Nirvana, Zhan Shidao, was a fifth-level half-demon. Rumor has it that he was the uncle of the previous number one genius of Season's Half-Demon League, Zhan Yue.
Third-level Nirvana, Elder Mu.
…
The danger level of the Myriad Race Battlefield was different, so naturally, it would be divided into different levels.
Half-demons couldn't break through to the Emergence Realm. Most of the geniuses among the half-demon geniuses would stay at the first, second, or third level of Nirvana Realm for the rest of their lives. Those who could break through to the third level of Nirvana Realm were extremely rare and would be heavily protected.
Feng Feiyun looked at the five spots and understood that half-demon teams could only go to the low-level battlefields.
The Nirvana Realm was a special realm. If one wanted to break through to the next realm, they would have to put themselves in a dangerous situation. Therefore, if one wanted to break through faster, the best way was to participate in a life and death battle. At the moment of life and death, the body's potential would be stimulated. The only place that could provide such a place was the Ten-thousand Race Battlefield.
Thus, the weakest half-demons were at least ninth-level Heaven's Mandate.
